Thigh Lift
Renew your self esteem and feel confident about your body‐wear the clothes you want to. If weight loss has left you with excess skin on your thighs, a thigh lift can give you renewed confidence and self esteem to get on with life...to be you.
The thigh lift operation involves making an incision around the groin area and the excess skin is pulled upwards before removal. Larger surpluses of skin are removed by extending the scar down the inner thigh. Although this surgery can be a fairly extensive procedure, it is effective in dealing with the problem of excess loose skin on the thighs.
Thigh lift surgery will be performed under a general anaesthetic and you will need to stay in the hospital for one or two nights. You will need to take great care with your scars and there will be bruising and swelling, which will usually subside after a few weeks.
When it's time for you to leave hospital, you will be given a follow up appointment with your consultant, and/or the dressing clinic for the removal of any stitches, together with any medication prescribed.
You will be advised to take a couple of weeks or more off work and avoid physical exercise for about a month.
